C++ cross-platform version of Cocos2D, an open-source mobile 2D game framework.

Cocos2d-x is a C++ open-source mobile 2D game framework, released under MIT License. Initially it evolved from cocos2d-iphone () but is now a largely independent framework.

Cocos2d-x projects can be deployed to iOS (), Android (), Samsung Bada, BlackBerry Table OS and other devices. Editing and debugging can be done on a variety of desktop operating systems with popular IDEs like Xcode, Visual Studio and others.

The current version is v4.0
